Hi All,
I have source table, target table and control table.
In first run, my target table will be loaded completely, but in second run only new records should be loaded and duplicate records should be loaded to control table. How to implement that ?? Need some help.
Source table run1
| var1 | var2 | var3 |
| 10 | 20 | 30 |
| 40 | 50 | 60 |
Target table run1
| var1 | var2 | var3 |
| 10 | 20 | 30 |
| 40 | 50 | 60 |
Control table run1
| Job_name | Status | var_List | No of rows | Date | Duplicates |
| Sample | Success | var1,var2,var3 | 2 | 17-Jul-14 | N |
Now in run2 Source is
| var1 | var2 | var3 |
| 50 | 60 | 70 |
| 40 | 50 | 60 |
Target should be
| var1 | var2 | var3 |
| 10 | 20 | 30 |
| 40 | 50 | 60 |
| 50 | 60 | 70 |
Control table should be
| Job_name | Status | var_List | No of rows | Date | Duplicates |
| Sample | Success | var1,var2,var3 | 2 | 17-Jul-14 | N |
| Sample | Success | var1,var2,var3 | 1 | 17-Jul-14 | Y |
Any help is highly appreciated
Why not just load the dataset as normal then do a proc sort nodupkey dupout=? E.g. This would then give you a table with distinct rows and a table with the duplicates. You can then post-process the duplicates to get your control dataset.
